Look for St Anthony’s on: www.saopdtx.org / Facebook Mass Times for Travel: masstimes.org Message from the desk of the Pastor My dear people of God, It would be worthwhile for us to take time and reflect on the familiar parable of the sower from today’s Gospel. Jesus gives us this parable as he sits in a boat by the sea. Matthew tells us that Jesus had to get into a boat to deliver his message while the people stood on the shore to lis- ten. To deepen our understanding of this parable, let us ask ourselves, where did the seeds of my faith fall? Is my faith planted on solid ground so I can bear great fruit for God, or did it fall on shallow ground, unable to mature and be a blessing to God? Maybe my faith starts out strong, but as soon as any heat comes my way, it withers for lack of roots . We all hope, of course, that our faith is like the seed planted in rich soil that will produce great fruit. Let us remember that Christ is always there to call us back to himself. We do not have to wither and die because of having no roots. Our Catholic faith teaches us that Christ gives us his grace, his presence and like rain, it returns having produced an effect. If we truly love Jesus, we accept him and everything he teaches. Our Lord encourages us to be like that seed that falls on good earth and grows to fruition. It begins with a deep and abiding faith in our Lord, and everything else will follow. What we believe is important. May each of us protect, nourish and give thanks to our heavenly Father for the gift of our Catholic faith. May we always recognize that our faith is a free gift of God and will increase as we live and teach our faith to others. May God bless you. Sincerely yours in Christ, Fr.

  • Medjugorje's Effects: a History of Local, State and Church Response
    MEDJUGORJE'S EFFECT'S: A HISTORY OF LOCAL, STATE AND CHURCH RESPONSE TO THE MEDJUGORJE PHENOMENON Teresa M. Pangle A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2011 Committee: Dr. Beth Greich-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Gary R. Hess ii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Greich-Polelle, Advisor This thesis examines the impacts of the alleged appearances of the Virgin Mary which began in Medjugorje, Yugoslavia in 1981. Through the examination of primary sources such as Catholic Church and the United States Department of State documentation and eye-witness interviews, this study creates a basic history of the events in Medjugorje and clearly defines the Catholic Church’s position on these events. This thesis provides an academic history of the events surrounding Medjugorje and provides historical insight into the motivations behind the response of the local villagers and clergy members, the Yugoslavian state and the Vatican. The events studied include a carefully-documented history of the first two months of the apparitions, an account of the officially-atheistic, Yugoslavian government’s response to the subsequent religious outpouring, and a history of the Catholic Church’s response to the alleged apparitions up to the present day. The dispute of the authenticity of the apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Medjugorje - which is currently under investigation by the Catholic Church - is polarizing within Catholic culture. The historiography of these events is divided into two groups of “pro-authenticity” or “anti-authenticity” authors who publish opposing and even contradictory information while using the same sources.

Bibliography 549 Various articles in newspapers and periodicals 579 Periodicals specifically on the topic 581 Video- and audio-tapes 582 Miscellaneous pieces of source material 583 Interviews 586 Appendices: brief historical and bibliographical details of apparition events 587 -375- Notes NB - Format of bibliographical references. The reference form "Smith [1991; 100]" means page 100 of the book by Smith dated 1991 in the bibliography. However, "Smith [100]" means page 100 of Smith, op.cit., while "[100]" means ibid., page 100. The Roman numerals I, II, etc. refer to volume numbers.

The first marian apparition is claimed by Zaragoza: AD 40 to St James. A more definite claim is that of Le Puy (AD 420). O'Carroll [1986; 1] notes that Gregory of Nyssa reported a marian apparition to St Gregory the Wonderworker ('Thaumaturgus') in the 3rd century, and Ashton [1988; 188] records the 4th-century marian apparition that is supposed to have led to the building of Santa Maria Maggiore basilica, Rome.

  • AMY M. GREEN University of Nevada, Las Vegas “MOTHER IS
    AMY M. GREEN University of Nevada, Las Vegas “MOTHER IS GOD IN THE EYES OF A CHILD:” MARIOLOGY, REVELATION, AND MOTHERS IN SILENT HILL INTRODUCTION s a mainstream, video game-based horror offering, the film Silent Hill (Christoph Gans, 2006) surprises by straying from a safe and Astraightforward narrative. Instead of offering the requisite gory showdowns with the monstrous denizens of the Silent Hill franchise, although such elements certainly do exist, screenwriter Roger Avary offers a complex study of women through a lens of Mariology, the theological study of the Virgin Mary, and the women of the book of Revelation. This focus on hyperdulia, “the ecclesiastical term for the special veneration given to the Virgin Mary,”1 lends symbolic weight especially to the female characters who anchor the film. Further still, the film explores the dichotomy of Mary, Mother of Jesus, and Mary Magdalene. These two women, arguably the two closest to Jesus, offer a further insight of the dichotomies of mother and whore, and of the forgiver and the penitent. The resulting narrative provides several distinct categories of mothering, and the specific ties such forms have to the veneration of the Virgin Mary. The first of these categories has to do with adoptive mothers who, thought they lack a biological connection to their children, feel no less love toward them, and evokes a larger sense of maternal love akin to that the Virgin Mary is most known for, especially within the Catholic church, a deep love for humankind. The second concerns biological motherhood. In relation to the film, this is explored through a mother who betrays her child by giving that daughter over to members of her cult who she surely must suspect will do her harm, then waiting until too late to intervene on her behalf.

  • Ths 572 the Church in Consummation: Eschatology and Mariology / Fall 2003 / Dr
    ThS 572 / Ford / Page 1 of 10 ThS 572 The Church in Consummation: Eschatology and Mariology / Fall 2003 / Dr. Ford Syllabus and Schedule Hee that lives in hope danceth without musick. —George Herbert, 1593–1633 Anglican Priest and Poet DESCRIPTION ThS 598 The Church in Consummation: Eschatology and Mariology analyses Chapters Seven and Eight of the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, Lumen Gentium, for what its says about the eschatological nature of the Church, of which the Blessed Virgin Mary is the icon. Eschatology has been described by Jon Sobrino as “Spes quaerens intellectum” (“Hope seeking understanding”). The first half of the course treats the traditional four last things (death, judgment, heaven, and hell) within the larger context of the Kingdom of God as the consummation of God’s eternal plan. The second half of the course discusses the place of Mary in the mystery of Christ and of the Church by surveying the scriptures and Christian tradition, Catholic doctrine, theological approaches, and the devotional practices of Catholics in the many cultures of the southwestern United States. OBJECTIVES Upon the successful completion of this course the student will have accomplished the following tasks at a graduate level: • the student will explore biblical revelation, Christian creeds, the fathers of the Church, magisterial statements, and the liturgy for what they say regarding the Catholic belief about the last things and about Mary (especially the soteriological and ecclesiological foci of Marian doctrine and devotion) and develop the ability to dialogue with non-Catholic Christians and others who differ with us about eschatology and about Marian doctrine and devotion.
